I used to have a computer with a mini-ITX running IPCop but I worked  
out it cost me £150 (about USD$300) a year to run in terms of  
electricity costs.  A hardware router cost about £15 (about USD$30) a  
year to run.  So I thought it wasn't really worth it - considering I  
had 3 computers running at the same time, a MythTV backend, server  
and IPCop - total £450 (USD$900) a year to run.  Far too much!  It's  
now just one computer and a router, and offsourced my email as spam  
detection demanded too much CPU and memory.  It's far cheaper for me  
this way.

Good idea though!

Thanks - Piers
